    The default standard for a New York breakfast. You can get it practically anywhere, and it's hard to mess up unless the roll is stale. Pair this with the classic Arizona iced tea, and that's your classic NYC breakfast. 💯

    Hey Jon! I love when you have Ming and Ben on with you. Bacon, egg, and cheese on a sesame bagel is my favorite, too. I don't use ketchup but if they accidentally added it, I would eat it. My local bagel shop here on Long Island (Avenue Bagel) is a small spot that does everything right. Occasionally, I add home fries to the mix. That's a sandwich that will hold you for hours.
    It's sad to see so many diners disappearing. A good diner is more than food, it's part of your social life. I love the idea of fusion...Asian or other ethnicities putting their take on classics and new will pump new life into the experience.

    This is a big controversy amongst my family and friends…I’m of the opinion that you can put whatever you like on your BEC but some say anything else besides butter is blasphemous. I get bored having it the same way all the time…some times I like ketchup, sometimes mayo…however you like it that’s what it is. 80% of the time I’m getting a BEC toasted, pepper, butter! 🤤 please don’t burn my eggs though!

    If there’s 2 breakfast food that us NYers do right, and dare I say it…..better than any place in America, it’s the baconeggandcheese and the bagel with cream cheese. Now I personally hate all condiments unless it’s soy sauce, lemon pepper sauce, and garlic Parmesan sauce (I’m a picky eater) with a baconeggandcheese I get mine with more eggs (egg whites, because I don’t like egg yolks), salt&pepper, and then some everything but the bagel seasoning. For a bagel with cream cheese, it’s gotta be evenly spread out and I usually get an everything bagel.

    54 years ago, I would be walking to school and stop by a little corner grocery store/deli called Fishies. Run by a wonderful couple. I would give them a quarter and they would give me a kaiser roll with the other liverwurst a bologna on it. That’s what I would take to school for lunch. It was heaven. I’m so jealous because we cannot get Kaiser rolls down here in the deep south.

      No cheese for me because lactose, and I’m not about that ketchup life on eggs. But egg and bacon sandwich on a bagel at my local deli still good!

    I do ketchup and mayo on my breakfast sandwich. I do put hot salsa and mayo on it also if in not in the mood for ketchup. Try mayo if you haven't

    Quintessential experience is from a bodega. It has four ingredients 1. An egg over medium/hard NEVER SCRAMBLED!!! 2. bacon 3. American cheese 4. a hard roll (only available in the greater NYC area) Bagels, other rolls, nope. Salt, pepper, slight stripe of ketchup are the only condiments.

    As a former NYer, I would argue BE&C on a roll and BE&C on a bagel are two completely different things. The bagel is too much, just get a schmear to bring out the true flavor of the bagel. The kaiser roll version is legit and yes, the guy gave you too much, it should be thin. Excellent work getting an MTA employee to keep it real. Thank you for your service Ben. As for French toast, sesame scallion or whatever bullshit bread so called artisans dream up should disqualify them for a true BE&C. Also, I almost closed out the video when you ordered this integral piece of the NYC culinary puzzle with fucking ketchup. Thanks for this trip down memory lane.

    Ketchup? That’s a personal choice. Hot sauce? Right on!

    I’m definitely more of a bodega breakfast sandwich guy. I’m old school New York!

    The difference between a deli and a bodega is that the bodega is ran by Dominicans, use to be Puerto Ricans mostly. We call all Arabic ran stores “the a-rabs” or “the Ocs”(ox)
